Ripples

Research output: Non-textual formComposition

Abstract

Composed entirely from recordings of Old Joe, Ripples accompanies the eleven o’clock chime. Emerging from the clocktower, it amplifies and extends the resonances of the original chimes, allowing them to ripple across the campus whilst the architecture of the University reflects and refracts sound in unexpected ways. This piece holds space in anticipation and reflection, inviting listeners to pause and notice the clocktower’s daily sonic presence - a familiar soundscape that quietly connects those on campus and in the surrounding areas.
